Ike★ 2,906 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Still trying to beat the third boss in Returnal. Nearing 24 hours of playtime. I get a good run and then get like 60% of my integrity wrecked by that mini boss. I know I need to be spamming the grappling hook but goddamn it’s hard af and then Nemesis is hard af too. I may need to take a break. But it keeps bringing me back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Your best bet is having a good weapon like the rocket launcher which does significant damage with just a single shot. Something like the Hollowseeker is not very good for that boss because while fast requires lots of shots. With the rocket launcher or single shot weapons you can shoot once and then quickly refocus on all the millions of bullet spam and projectiles coming at you Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. House 3,371 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 @kaz I'm playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance. Holy shit, this game is truly fantastic. The effort that went in to make the game a realistic medieval simulation is impressive and the story, presentation and voice action are spectacular. And those graphics wow, it must look fucking amazing maxed out. It came out in like 2018, right? Damn, that makes the game even more impressive. This might just become my favorite open world RPG in a while if it keeps up. And here I always thought it was some broken, clunky B-rate game. Which is why I avoided it for so long. Cost me $11 on sale, what a steal. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Life is so exhausting, that I find I dislike games that feel like a chore or job. Eventually, I’ll probably quit gaming, or just play a few titles a year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cost me $11 on sale, what a steal. In a way it's still clunky but the realistic approach is so refreshing. I would even recommend this game to GD for the story because it's actually really good and not what someone would expect from a "medieval realistic knight" game. It's more like a dude gets dragged into solving mysteries sherlock holmes style and then uncovers some real shit. But the combat and initial difficulty will just put most people off. Just my advice, train your ass off with bernarnd, combat is hard at first because you need to level up your stats. Winning in battle is a mix of skill and stats. There are some ownage side quests too. my henry owned hard after a few hundred hours of gameplay 😳 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So either that grenade launcher or the lobber for that boss. I haven’t done a run in a while. My gf has the PS5 on rest mode right now waiting to go fight the 2nd boss with a good farm. She beat the first boss in her first try. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do plus games allow the ps5 updates now? I know ff7 on plus didn’t get the graphics update. I know my series x version of PT has the update. Hopefully, Sony changed that dumb policy.

And no Sony still doesn't allow that. Which is good, as giving away FFVII for free, then allowing you to upgrade it is a slap in the face for people who bought it at launch at full price. That's something i'd expect from hobo pass, not a premium console experience. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Delita 698 Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Finally getting back into FFVII Intergrade. Damn Yuffies combat is beastly. I love how different it feels compared to ffvii. I’m loving the new jazzy soundtrack as well. That new board game minigame is shite though. Square needs to just stop with mini games, they’re never going to make another triple triad level minigame again so why waste time, just make a new triple triad in every FF.
